Sniiiimiiiiiiin TIRRIN’ the DOPE ™ By VEDDER GARD
■ IORTY-SIX rounds of boxing I r* | Is at least ten rounds too L—much. Steve Harter's shows usually are full of action and well conducted In every way, but the fans get tired before It Is all over with such a lengthy program. Many of the spectators voiced this opinion on Monday night at Tomlinson Hall. They appreciated the fact that Steve was giving them plenty for their coin—but they didn’t want that much. Too much of anything is just as bad as not enough. Diamonds are valuable, because they are not found on every hillside. The scarcity of the stones makes them valuable. A heaped-up plate of food is often not as tempting as a more moderate helping. Thirty-six rounds of milling Is plenty for one card. Some of the folks have to get up next morning and go to work—and there’s another show coming next week. HU OSH THE BOARD TODAY kM;-' ' ■nne winner and a second wae the recpd of Across the Board on Monday. Four horse were selected, but two of them were scratched.

But you can not help but believe he is just about the best in this town when it comes to stepping out and battling. His spirit In the ring and his concentration on his task are admirable. He likes to wade in. That's what we mean. He has the "heart.” Theie are others in Indianapolis who have enough natural ability to go much # arther in the profession of mitt slinging If they had Alte’s fire and fervor. • * * The Big Ten coaches all seem to havs the same worry. “Give us a line,” they implore. If we had the “line” some of those mentors hand out we’d go to equatorial Africa and sell the natives earmuffs and mittens. * * *
|__ JHEN Wabash and I’urdue |\jy I football teams clash at I YY 1 Lafayette on next Saturday two former Technical High buddies may glare at Pach other from the centers of ■ the opposing lines. Rabe is one of the pivot men at Purdue making a strong bid for the position, and Hank Gordon is an outstanding candidate for the same job at Wabash. The two used to be seen together almost any time, day or night, when going to Tech. They played football, baseball and basketball. It will be a strange experience to be foes instead of friends. • • • We know the baseball season in the Association is closed, but just one final word about an Indianapolis boy. Bob Blessing, former Butler player, looks like a hitter. He has improved a great deal this year. Here with Columbus in the final series of the year, he stood up at the bat in nice style and took a wicked slash at the ball. • • • I -TIEFORE his fight with Billy I fj I Cincinnati, Ray 1 J Hahn remarked that the Cincy scrapper looked rather pale and thin. After the fight Billy had a more ruddy complexion because of Hahn’s tattoo of blows, but he was still on his feet after taking all Ray had to offer. You never can tell about the pale, thin bit ds.

NEW YORK MONEY LEANS TOWARD PITTSBURGH IN TITLE SERIES
TITLE GO REMAINS ‘I N A I R’ Wills-Dempsey Promoters Shaky About Indiana Law —51,000,000 Talk. Bu United Pres* CHICAGO, Sept. 20.—1f Floyd Fitzsimmons’ personally conducted expedition has led to the pot of gold at the end of the South Bend (Ind.) rainbow, Jack Dempsev and Harry Wills will sign shortly for a championship fight. The two already are bound by a preliminary agreement to battle somewhere, some time, if and provided the financial arrangement is tempting, but the final, iron-bound promise to meet on a specified date at a specified place for a specified amount is yet in the air. Nothing has come out of S' - uth Bend to contradict the assurance of B. H. (Rob Roy) Benton, Dempsey’s secretary, who has been telling everybody for the last two weeks that the fight is a sure thing and won’t fall through. It seems accepted that the date is to be July 4, 1926. Benton has announced the signatures would be written either in South Bend or Benton Harbor, Mich. The Michigan alternative is in case the Indiana laws against prize fights might affect the legality of the contracts. It seems the boys have met the five South business men who are the financial backers of the fight, and have been convinced that $1,000,000 is not too much for the backers to raise among them for underwriting the fight. MATCH PLAY Bu United Press ST. DOUIS COUNTRY CLUB, Clayton, Mo., Sept. 29.—With the field trimmed down to thirty-two of the best, match play In the twentyninth annual women's national golf tournament got under way here today. If medal play is any indication, some of the hardest fought golf matches played here in years are In store for the remainder of the week. Mrs. Alexa Stirling Frazer of Ottawa Canada, formerly of Atlanta, Ga., and three times champion, shattered the course record with a sparkling 77 for the eighteen holes in the qualifying round. She was closely pursued by Miss Gienna Collett, another former titleholder, who turned in an 78. Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd had an 80.

CENTRAL NORMAL COACH PLEASED WITH TALENT By Dick Miller, Times Staff Correspondent. DANVILLE, Ind., Sept. 29—The Central Normal College grldders of Danville are going through heavy work this week in preparation for their opener here Friday with Vincennes College eleven. Coach Cook has had his warriors practicing on the chalked field for two weeks and until this week, two sessions were held daily. College classes started Monday and the grid work was cut to one drill a day.
Coach Cook is not backward about sizing up his ability and said Monday he expected to have a stronger eleven this fall than last. Coaches don’t usually predict better things, but Cook Is an exception, for he is highly pleased with the turn-out at Central Normal. "I have seven letter-men back and with four good freshmen, who entered school I believe we will win a majority of the games,” Cook said. Builds l'p Confidence A glance at his squad and then his schedule indicates he was about right. Cook believes that if his men are instilled with the confidence they can win, they are as well off as if they were a little bit overconfident, or feared the opj>onent to such an extent that they failed to give their best. In many ways that theory is good. The letter-men Cook has are Hite and Shelton, ends; Layman, tackle; Parker, captain and guard; Walls quarter back; Carpenter, full back, and Thompson, center. FIRST TEAM SELECTED Monday the first team was selected at least fur the game next Friday, and all these ah's except Thompson are sure to start. Ogie. anew man who entered school and who played a bit of football at Westfield High School, has made competi. tion so keen for Thompson that the center job is undecided. Among the twenty-five other freshmen who make up the squad of thrity-three, Stewart, who played at Shortridge. Indianapolis. is the best oet for the other tackle on the varsity Bennett, who hails from Kemper Military School ,n M.-soun. for the other guard position: Sapp, who gained a year of training under Ed Duggan at Franklin College, for a half pack, and Fultza. Danville } igh School, is set for the other half back job. Higgins. Bostic. Sp.ariow anil Bailiff refuse to agree with Cook that the two varsity end positions are filled correctly. They give the first string men a scrap in scrimmage. Cox and Neidgcr farm a fairly good set of reserve tackles and McClellan and Schmidt fit in well at reserve guards. Lamb and Padgett will have thrir hands full trying to work Carpenter out of a job at full back. Undoubtedly most of Centrals offense will be built around the giant full back. He has a powerful line in lront of him and the forward wall if working right, will enable him to <Tush forward for touchdowns. WALLS GOOD AT QUARTER Another offensive star probably will turn out to bs Walls at quarter back, a clever passer and runner. In this job probably centers the success or failure of the Central team. The two varsity half backs are freshmen and four other men of fair ability sit on the bench ready to go at the word. This set of positions may bo changed before many games are played. A whole lot will depend on who among the six will make team mates for the huge bit of moleskin-covered humanity Carpenter. He Is different from most college full backs In Indiana, and the half backs mao- be just as different before the right combination is found. The team probably will resort to the drive game with such weight in the forward wall and the plunger a full back. However, there Is enough speed In the back field to divert to the aerial game. _ The Central Normal schedule follows: Dct 2. Vincennes, here.. Oct. 9. at Oakland City College: Oct 10. Muneie Normal. here: Oct. 23. Indiana State School for Deaf, here: Oct. 30. Indiana Central, here: Nov. 7. N irth Manchester: Nov. 14 Merom College, here.

MAJORS IN TAME W I NJJ-U P All Interest Gone as Teams Close Season in Haphazard Style. Bu Tim-'* Special NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—The major league baseball season will now drawl to an overdue finish with random games sprinkled over the remaining days of both schedules. The last week of the programs was badly arranged and the club owners will make little money on them because the pennants have long since been awarded. Philadelphia and Brooklyn, two hopeless also-rans of the National League, will play a series today, Wednesday and Thursday which may establish anew low record for attendance. The Giants played the Dodgers Monday, but the players, instead of disbanding, will have to lie around awaiting a date with the Phillies Saturday. They will play another one Sunday, their farewell for the year. The Yanks divided a double-header with the Tigers in New York Monday, but have nothing to do until Friday and Saturday, when they close the- season against the Athletics. It Is unofficially reported that both major leagues drew fewer customers this year than in 1924, although the National League made a sentimental plea for patronage by naming the 1925 season the Jubilee season and by observing the league's fiftieth anniversary with elegant ceremonies at opportune intervals. In the American League the reported decline doubtless was due to Ruth’s feebleness and the consequent diminution of his drawing power. CHALLENGE PRESTO NINE The Indianapolis Light and Heat Company baseball team, winner of the Indianapolis class A title, has challenged the Prest-O-Lite club class AA champs, for a series of three games for the city amateur title. The challengers suggest that the money earned be turned over to the Indianapolis Amateur Baseball As sociatlon.

Betting Opens at 6 to 5 Among Street “Experts” John McGraw Says It’s a Toss-Up. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—Pittsburgh is the favorite in the early betting here to win the world’s series from Washington, which starts next week, Wednesday, Oct. 7, in the National League city.
Several firm** have $6,000 to bet against $5,000 that the Pirates will win the series and the same amount at the same price that the Senators will lose the first game. John McGraw, manager of the Giants, who would not be swayed by league loyalty to pick the Pirates if he thought the Senators were going to win, voices the sentiment of many wise baseball men. “The better team does not always win a short series,” he said. “The breaks are of the most vital Importance. and they can not be figured. The Pirates and the Senators look to me like even money.” With the exception of Jack Bentley and Bill Terry, all of the Giant regulars think Pittsburgh's punch and speed will down the Senators. Reports that Buck Harris, Walter Johnson ar.d Roger Pecklnpaugh are not in good shape may be keeping some Washington money off the i mrket. The bets offered in New York, however, are no real Indication. The feeling In New York is Influenced too much by the desire to take a bet.
DIXIE SERIES Bu Tim'* Special FT. WORTH, Texas, Sept. 29. Paul Wachtel's spltball was Atlanta’s nemesis again Monday. The husky moundsman of the Cats, who let the Crackers down with five hits Saturday, did the same trick again Monday, the Texas League champions winning the fifth game of the Dixie series, 9 to 0. With Monday’s victory, the Panthers are credited with three victories against two for Atlanta, and the battle for the Dixie championship is shifted hack to Atlanta for the finale. Warinoth, Bert Niehoff’s pitching ace. was routed by Ft. Worth’s bat ling attack for the second time during the series, being retired in the fourth inning in favor of Floyd Dell. Niehoff’s men must win the two remaining games on their home soil to take the series. HE OUGhTtO KNOW Bii United Press , NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—“ Gene Tunney hits shorter and harder than Harry Wills, and he will knock him cut if they ever meet.” Burtley Madden. who was knocked out by Tunney last week, said on his return from the West. Madden denied the story that he had received $25,000 to lay down. “I was guaranteed $5,000 for my purse, and that’s all I got,” he said. EARLY BASKETBALL The Hoosier Centrals will get an early season start In basketball. Their first workout will be held Thursday night. The Centrals will have two teams in the field this season.

OPENING SHOW IS WINNER Packed House Sees Harter’s Indoor Fisticuffs—Wallace Wallops Sobjeck. By Eddie Ash The opening fistic show of the local indoor season, promoted by Steve Harter, went over big at Tomlinson Hall Monday night, when six bouts were staged. Not a knockdown occurred, hut there was action to please and gobs of gore. In the wind-up event Roy Wallace, local middleweight, met Larry Sobjeek, Milwaukee light heavy, and gave the visitor a lacing over the ten-round route. Roy Improves Wallace showed Improved boxing and better timing of punches, and Sobjeck was cut hadly from stiff left and right jrhs and swings. Roy Is hitting straight out now and not leaving himself open to Invite destruction. Merle Alt©, Indianapolis, shaded Paul Allen, Urbana, in ten rounds, the visiting lad takin t it on the run the first half of the bu <t. Alte was the aggressor and landed the harder blows.

Ray Hahn, local 140-pounder, almost slaughtered Billy Gertln, Cincinnati, in ten rounds and won thr honors by a decisive margin. Gertin was in there to stay and he took plenty punching and lost much blood. He was given a good hand for gameness. Other Bouts Carl Schmadel and Joe Dillon, locals, fought a six-round draw, the latter overcoming a lead. Allen Watson appeared to be entitled to a verdict on points over Larry Pruitt, but he Indicated he disliked mixing at close quarters.
